Altered Zones

Forma is the Bushwick, BK trio of Mark Dwinell, Sophie Lam, and George Bennett; they practice and record out of local underground venue the Schoolhouse, own enough Roland synthesizers to fill a small bus, and describe their sound as a "singular vision of cosmic Krautrock for a new age." The band just announced the release of their self-titled debut LP on John Elliott's Spectrum Spools imprint, a sub-label of Austria's Editions Mego. Listen to album single, "Forma 230," for their signature blend of motorik pulses, synthetic counterpoint, and tactile drones. Definitely an artist to keep your eye on as DIY Brooklyn makes its way into the Age of Aquarius. --Emilie Friedlander, Altered Zones
